Teachers’ Day

Every year in India, 5th September is celebrated as “Teachers’ Day” as a mark of tribute to the contribution made by teachers to the society.

5th September is the birth anniversary of a great teacher Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, who was a staunch believer of education, and was a well-known diplomat, scholar, the President of India and above all, a teacher.

When some of his students and friends approached him and requested him to allow them to celebrate his birthday, he said, “instead of celebrating my birthday separately, it would be my proud privilege, if 5th September is observed as Teachers’day”. From then onwards, the 5th of September has been observed as Teachers Day, in India.

Our students at B. R. Harne College of Architecture, celebrate teachers’ day every year and express their love and gratitude towards teachers.
